Brody's Story: A Sheep's Tale

Brody likes to "read."  And by read, I mean he likes to look at the pictures and make up his own stories.  His stories are usually pretty funny, and yes, sometimes they are about poop.  Sigh.  This weekend, I enjoyed listening to him "reading" a story with his daddy, and I really wanted to write it down so I wouldn't forget it.  So I guess this is Brody's first published work of literature.  One day when he is a famous author, this little piece will be worth some money.  Ha!  

{The illustrations that sparked this story were from this little baby board book which I had been reading to Mattox.  I worked on my baby and children's book collection a lot after I had Evan.  This one is very sweet and tells babies how much mommies love their babies.}

 Once upon a time, there was a sheep eating grass on the mountain. 

{This is the picture from the book that started the story}

Then, the mountain went a booming, and the lights went out.    

A Shepherd came and took the sheep to the beach.   

They went surfing. 

{Yes, yes, I did actually google search and find an image of a sheep surfing.  Google is amazing!}

  Then, a monster came and chased them on their surfboards. 

{Hey, he didn't specify what kind of monster.  Yes, I must thank google again for finding this surfing Cookie Monster.  Ha!}

Then, the lights went out again, and the monster could not find them.   The monster found a flashlight and chased them all the way back to the mountain.   

The Shepherd and the sheep went into the mountain where they found a diamond.   

The Shepherd gave the diamond to his wife.   His wife took the diamond to town and got cash and then got a smaller, but bigger, diamond.  

The End.

We are very proud he told a whole story with no poop in it!
